Re: NO

From the article:
===========
"Each broadband subscriber would pay sixteen Euros ($23) a month, whether they downloaded music or not.")
===========
No, thanks. I pay as I go. I don't want to pay for others, and I don't want others paying for me.

Yes...

I would do it if there was no contract. Since my library was lost, I would love to rebuild it. There is a ton of older music that I would love to have. Rhapsody charges 9.99 for a cd, and I don't realy like Rhapsody. from a value perspective, if there was no contract period, I could do well.

Assuming they are offering the J. Giels Band, Johnny Winter, Leon Russell, Stevie Ray, and JoJo Gunn!

Re: NO

First off, is it optional? I know of many campuses that just auto-file you in for a discount Rhapsody or some online such as a CYA for any illegal downloads students might do...just wondering if this is the same concept.

And second, no, I would not pay $25 a month for the trash RIAA is putting out these days. I might pay $25 for one month of the service, provided I could burn CDs . But, aside from the potential legal music workaround, no...not worth it to keep paying an industry that keeps putting out shabby products.

For 23 Dollars I rather get a real CD since they cost a mere 6-9 dollars these days.

Are you sure???? I think Briney's new song might be worth it. It's making me seriously contemplate this proposal. mmmmmmm yeah I might consider being gouged for $23 - $25 dollars a month such talentless tarts. I especially can't wait for a Paris Hilton's Greatest Hits album.......not.

I second that... "NO!"

..in other words, no.. I don't want an RIAA tax. I will continue to enjoy my right to buy what I want, when I want.

  Would you pay an extra monthly fee to your ISP for unlimited, legal p2p music downloads?

NO.

All my music is from the Oldies genre(50's to early 70's) and are on CDs I already bought. I don't need or want newer music.
